About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the waiting room of BSA Harrington Breast Center, a little girl pointed and whispered to her mother, ‘Mommy, why do those ladies have funny stickers on their faces?’ The mother smiled and leaned down. ‘Honey,’ she whispered back, ‘those are not stickers—those women are just having a special kind of treatment.’ The girl tilted her head curiously. ‘Like my sticker collection?’ she asked. ‘Exactly like that!’ replied the mom with a laugh. The little girl beamed, thinking it was all quite normal.
2. In the waiting room of BSA Harrington Breast Center, an elderly gentleman cleared his throat and asked the receptionist, ‘Excuse me, but is it true that if you wait long enough here, they’ll eventually perform surgery on your credit card?’ The receptionist smiled politely and replied, 'Oh, no sir, we only operate on breasts.' The old man nodded wisely and said, 'Well then, I guess I'll just sit tight until my wife needs a check-up!' Everyone in the waiting room burst into laughter.
3. In the waiting room of BSA Harrington Breast Center, a young woman asked curiously, ‘Do you think they check for cancer or just for bras today?’ Another patient, an older gentleman in a plaid shirt, overheard and chimed in with a twinkle in his eye, ‘I bet they do both these days!’ The receptionist smiled sweetly and said, “We’re here for health, not fashion shows.” And that’s how the most awkward breast center waiting room banter became a daily ritual.
4. In the waiting room of BSA Harrington Breast Center, a small dog trotted in, sniffing around curiously before stopping abruptly and staring up at the ceiling with wide eyes. After a moment, everyone turned to look at the ceiling too—only to see nothing unusual. The little dog yawned, sat down, and started dozing off on a nearby chair. A nurse chuckled and said, ‘Must be our new patient’s companion.’
